<![CDATA[Objective: This study analyzes student management in improving student discipline at UPTD SD Inpres Puluthie Oebelo, Kupang Tengah District, Kupang Regency, focusing on how the thirteen scopes of student management are implemented in practice. Methods: A qualitative approach with a descriptive design was used. Data were collected through observation, interviews, and documentation involving the principal, a classroom teacher, and student representatives, and analyzed through data reduction, data display, and conclusion drawing/verification. Results: Student management has been implemented across its thirteen scopes, from planning, admission, orientation, attendance management, and grouping, to learning-outcome evaluation, grade promotion, transfer/drop-out handling, enforcement of codes of conduct, and the cultivation of punctuality, rule compliance, timely assignment submission, and polite language use. Most aspects run in a structured manner and contribute positively to student discipline, although weaknesses remain in formal documentation, visual socialization of rules, parental involvement in planning, and consistency of discipline evaluation. Novelty: This study offers a field-based mapping of all thirteen scopes of student management at the primary level within a Christian education institution in Eastern Indonesia, a setting rarely examined empirically, and identifies specific administrative and documentation gaps not widely highlighted in prior discipline studies.]]>
